Onion_king & Hardman
Hey, Hardman, I heard your checklist has that mysterious #4—“Check perimeter twice.” I’ve been trying to keep my onion rows in line like a train track, but I keep running into a wild patch of weeds that feels like a rogue signal. Got any tricks for keeping the perimeter tight without turning the whole field into a cluttered mess?
Use a single line of stakes or a taut string to mark the exact edge of your onion rows. Each time you walk the perimeter, trim the weeds back to that line, then re‑check the line to make sure nothing has slipped past. Keep all trimming tools in one small box so you’re not leaving stray clippings that turn the field into a cluttered mess. And remember: Check perimeter twice.
Sounds good, I’ll set up a string line, and keep my shears in a single box—no more stray clippings turning the field into a jungle. And I’ll be the first to double‑check that perimeter, just in case the weeds conspire against me. Thanks for the tip.
Glad to hear you’re tightening the perimeter. Just keep the string tight and the shears tidy, and the weeds will have nothing left to do but watch from the sidelines.
You got it, I’ll keep the line taut and the shears in one box. Those weeds won’t stand a chance—just watching from the sidelines, I see.
Keep the line tight, and let the weeds know you’re watching.
